#THE OMEGA-LEVEL
Could James Gunn Make A ‘Hitman’ Franchise?
Editor’s Note: Please welcome guest contributor Phillip Cho with a fresh James Gunn meets Hitman take!
It’s been a few years now since “Hitman: Agent 47” was released to a brutal spattering of criticism. While the movie did okay at the box office, critics were relentless in labeling it yet another failed game-to-big screen adaptation. One review summed up the sentiment best, calling it “another video game adaptation that critics will largely dismiss and audiences will mostly ignore.”

OMEGA-CAST #16: Ultron’s Zany Zeitgeist Genocide
They’re back! This time the Dickheads Chaperoning the Space-Ship Omega dive into their general malaise regarding Age of Ultron. They also discuss that Star Wars movie coming up to the point of nausea. At one point, CaffPow’s discusses the depression that follows signing up for porn sites that haven’t been updated since 2001. We also cover Bateman’s crosswalk stop light fetish, and maybe a little about Daredevil. Dim the lights, doff your pants, and join them in their insanity. You can listen on iTunes, Stitcher, or after the jump.
OMEGA-CAST #15: The Hero We Didn’t Want
For the past dozen+ episodes of the OMEGA-CAST, Patrick Bateman has starred in a quality supporting role. However, this time the lovable, completely-stoned sociopath takes center stage in our descent into madness. Laugh at his non-sequiturs regarding the Powers that Be and the Televisor. Marvel at his input regarding the idea of concurrently developed sequels to one movie. Cower before his insanity when it comes to stalking celebrities online to “see how they’re doing.” From Star Wars canon to Dragon Age: Inquisition, he steals the show.
OMEGA-CAST #14: Denzel Washington’s Stroke Face
Oh shit! Yeah! We didn’t forget about you! And we didn’t forget about this podcast that we recorded a month ago. #STEVEBRULEWINK. This is pretty much our fucking 2014 RECAP. But. You know. A month into 20-FUCKING-15. We discuss our favorite movies (#OSCAR TIE-IN?!), Denzel Washington’s stroke face, Caff’s disdain for Seth Rogen, and Bateman’s new insulin pump. Among other things.
It’s funny we promise.
OMEGA-CAST #8: Fear & Loathing in Coruscant
A hot new plate of podcast for you to engulf. Go ahead, throw it down that dirty gullet of yours. Oh, you want to know what that bubbling black ooze is? Or the gnarled tree branch looking things? Fine! Fine. If you must know what’s on this episode: more Star Wars talk (ugh, I know!), Caff complaining about a lot of things and articulating them poorly, Rendar’s lost son, the Ninja Turtles, the exhaustion of comic book culture, Riff’s first guitar solo played on whale bones, eating tortilla chips in the microphone, and more.
Hit the jump for the terror, or check us out on iTunes.
OMEGA-CAST #5: Man, We Ain’t Got Nerd Cred!
The fifth OMEGA-CAST is in! During this transmission, the crew covers a shit load of disparate topics. There’s a final Boston Comic Con wrap-up. Caff-Pow brings up the idea that maybe the Crew OL isn’t esoteric enough for old school geeks. We also discuss Steven Moffat’s douchiness. How about some Wolverine talk? Finally we delve into the first mail bag, wherein Caff decides his jaeger’s name involves handjobs. Obviously.
Two Years Of Fart Joke, Lit Analysis, Geek Omega Nonsense.
Holy canoles! Omega Level crossed the two years mark a week or so ago, and it’s something of a mind trip to the Brothers Omega who started this nonsense on a lark and out of boredom something like 700 days ago. Since the two of us are both wistful English majors with throbbing boners for nostalgia, we figured a little useless reminiscing was in order.
Hop inside! Hop in, inside!
Review: X-Men: First Class. Cold War, Hot Swag.
X-Men: First Class dropped yesterday, and the Brothers Omega went to see it. We’re lifelong fans of mutants and zany dudes in wheelchairs, so we were pretty excited. What’d we think of the movie? What’d you think of the movie? Hit the jump to join in the fun.
